THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER. 

"i)h : say, can you see by the dawn's early light 

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming— 

Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight. 
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming : 

And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, 
Gave proof through the night that our Hag was still there. 

Chorus. 

Oh ! say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet v»'ave 
O'er the lanri of the free and the home of the brave ! 

Oh : thus be it ever when freemen shall stand 

Between their loved homes and the war's desolation. 

Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land 
aise the power that hath ma,de and preserved ■us a nation. 

Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just. 
And this be our motto— "In God is our trust. '^ 

Chorus, 

And the Star Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave 
O'er th'e laed of the free and the home of the brave I 



AMERICA. 

My country, 'tis of thee. 
Sweet land of liberty. 

Of thee I sing ; 
Land where our fathiers died. 
Land of the pilgrims' pride, 
From every mountain side 

Let freedom ring. 

Our fathers' God to thee, 
Author of liberty, 

To thee we sing ; 
Ivong may our land be bright 
With freedom's holy light ; 
Protect us by thy might, 

Great God, our Kin^r.
